Nike Air Max Day is one of the highly anticipated days on the sneaker calendar. Nike launched Air Max Day in 2014, and has released sneakers from its Air Max vault to mark the occasion every year. This Sunday, two planned releases are the original Air Max 1 "Big Bubble" and a brand new silhouette for Gen Z, the Air Max Pulse. Nike has a large catalog of classic Air Max sneakers released throughout its history, including the Air Max 97, Air Max 95, and Air Max 90. Sneaker collectors are known to celebrate the day by wearing their favorite Air Max sneakers and posting photos of them online.
Many consumers hoping to grab a pair of the Nike Air Force 1 Low Tiffany & Co. "1837" missed out. Customers looking to buy the sneaker will now have to pay three times the $400 retail price. The Nike and Tiffany drop highlighted a few key hurdles for consumers who attempt to purchase limited-edition sneakers. For die-hard Tiffany fans newly introduced to sneaker culture, it was a rude awakening about how modern sneaker releases are very much a lottery. If not, there are plenty of other Air Force 1s to choose from.
Sneaker collectors are frustrated with Nike after its SNKRS app glitched during the Air Jordan 1 "Lost and Found" drop. Many took to Twitter to complain of error messages and app crashes that prevented them from entering the drawing. Nike has faced mounting criticism for its struggle to prevent bots and resellers from taking over hyped shoe drops. Frustrated collectors took to Twitter en masse Saturday to commiserate over technical issues on Nike's SNKRS app that stopped them from entering a drawing to purchase the sneakers. Others joked that Twitter seemed to be more functional than the SNKRS app, despite widespread layoffs and a mass exodus under new leader, Elon Musk.
The Wall Street Journal on Tuesday reported on a recent change to Nike's terms of sale. A Nike insider, as well as analysts, said it's a good move, but it won't solve the problem. But Nike's revised terms of sale, while applauded by many, still comes up short of a full solution to its reselling problem, insiders and analysts said. Nike also has policies that prohibit reselling in Europe and South Korea, but they don't specifically state any repercussions. In September, Nike reported a 44% increase in inventory.
